Led lamp bulb structure

ABSTRACT

An LED lamp bulb structure is disclosed, in which a lamp controller is installed inside a lamp head and the bottom surface of the lamp controller is fixed by an upper cover. At the bottom surface of the upper cover, a heat dispersing fin set, which has at least one heat conducting tube installed therein, and a lower cover are fixed. Furthermore, a bulb housing, which has a tray mounted therein, is screwed around the peripheral edge of the lower cover, and at the bottom of the tray, plural LED lamp sets corresponding to plural heat conducting tubes are outwardly extended. Therefore, the heat produced by the LED lamp sets can have a heat exchange through plural heat conducting tubes and the heat dispersing fin set for achieving a better heat dispersing effect and for more effectively dispersing the heat.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is related to an LED lamp bulb structure, and more particularly to an LED lamp bulb structure which can disperse heat more efficiently and more rapidly.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Owing to very little energy consumption during operation, LED bulbs have already in place of conventional incandescent lamps in many products, such as decoration lamps, advertisement signs or traffic signs.

However, although the LED lamp 10 can be lit up with very little power supply, the temperature still will become higher when illumination, so that for facilitating replacement, usually, a protection shell 11 (as shown in FIG. 1) is mounted around the LED lamp. Although the protection shell 11 can be held by the consumer as replacing the LED lamp 10, it also encapsulates the heat energy therein and causes a worse heat dispersing, thereby the LED lamp 10 is easily damaged and the life time thereof is short.

Furthermore, for solving the problem of poor heat dispersing capability as described above, another kind of structure is developed, in which an LED lamp 20 is fixed under a heat conducting plate 22, and on the other side of the heat conducting plate 22, heat sinks 21 spaced at intervals are combined therewith (as shown in FIG. 2). When operation, the heat produced by the LED lamp 20 can be absorbed by the heat conducting plate 22 and then transmitted to heat sinks 21 for dispersing. However, after heating a period of time, a bake effect might appear to all heat sinks 21, and easily, the limitation of contact conduction provided by the heat sinks 21 will be reached and the heat will stay around the heat sinks 21, thereby increasing the difficulty to disperse the heat. Therefore, the life time of LED lamp 20 also might be reduced.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention is to provide a heat dispersing structure in which plural heat conducting tubes and heat sinks are used to perform heat exchange for achieving a better heat dispersing effect and for more effectively dispersing the heat.

For achieving the object described above, the present invention provides an LED lamp bulb structure, in which a lamp controller is installed inside a lamp head and the bottom surface of the lamp controller is fixed by an upper cover. At the bottom surface of the upper cover, a heat dispersing fin set, which has at least one heat conducting tube installed therein, and a lower cover are fixed. Furthermore, a bulb housing, which has a tray mounted therein, is screwed around the peripheral edge of the lower cover, and at the bottom of the tray, plural LED lamp sets corresponding to plural heat conducting tubes are outwardly extended.
